NSPA PacemakerFilled with bright, vibrant colors, El Dorado’s 2019 edition of Legend always gives the reader something interesting to look at on almost every spread.
Using the theme “Off the Tracks,” which represented a celebration of El Dorado students who weren’t afraid to show their individuality, the Legend staff also wasn’t afraid to make bold choices in design and coverage.
Along with bright color everywhere, the use of diagonal lines provides the feeling of tracks, frequently leading off the page. Coming from the border town of El Paso, Mexican-American heritage is important at El Dorado and it shows up in the coverage, with spreads on topics like students crossing the border to experience the city of Juarez.
